Bush says "Results matter! "
What kind of results is he talking about? As a result of his ill-advised taxcuts, we are face to face with $450 billion dollar deficits this year. HOw long does he think we can continue these?

As a result of his incompetence and laziness, he didn't read his intel briefings and though it better to go on a vacation down at his "ranch" in Crawford, Texas. As a result, our nation was attacked under his watch because he wasn't watching.

And because of his arrogance and impatience, he invaded another country that was not a threat to us. As a result, we now have over 900 young Americans killed and thousands and thousands of Iraqi citizens killed. And as a result, we are disrespected around the world by our long-time allies and others. Is that what he is talking about when he screams self-righteously that "Results matter!" ??

5. You're right, George, and the results are in: You suck.
You suck as a "President", you suck as a leader, you suck as a businessman, and you suck as a human being.

If I said anymore, I'd be redundant.

6. They needed a simple catch phrase for Bush to repeat...
You know, one he hopefully wouldn't mangle on its way out of his mouth.

7. BushCo got results
THey just aren't very good. The results in Iraq are chilling. THe results in our economy are devistating.

Why he's calling attention to his "results" is beyond me.

We should compile a nice long list of BushCo's results to have handy for rebuttal.

10. Run with it, Kerry:
Results:

-Almost 1000 U.S. soldiers dead in a war of choice

-2 million jobs lost (after >20 million gained on President Clinton's watch)

-Alienation of key allies

-Unfunded promises for education

-Bogus medicare bill makes things worse

-Environmental regulations rolled back

-Country is sharply divided

-Out of control budget deficit

-Income gap widening

(That's just off the top of my head)
